The total number of bushels the farmer has for sale at the farmers market is 9.75 bushels.

The given parameters;

The actual amount of the bushel sold in per day;

$= \frac{15.75}{1 \ day}$

After 7 days the amount of the bushel sold is calculated as;

$= \frac{15.75}{1 \ day} \times 7\ days= 110.25 \ bushels$

The amount of the bushel left after the 7 days;

$= 120 - 110.25\\\\= 9.75 \ bushels$

Thus, the total number of bushels the farmer has for sale at the farmers market is 9.75 bushels.
